The souls of light and darkness offer themselves in sacrifice, and golden light erupts from the altar of the ritual. A door stands tall, resembling a gateway to a chaotic world, and the heavy gate opens slowly, as if a chaotic vortex from the dawn of time erupts from within.
A sword of creation slices from chaos, the Chaos Warrior clad in armor, holding a long sword in one hand, flashing with cold light, and a shield in the other, with a stern expression and eyes free of confusion, his gaze sharp as a drawn blade.
Chaos Warrior - Messenger of Creation, summon!
[Chaos Warrior - Messenger of Creation, Attack Power 3000]
Malik admired, "To summon a Silent Magician with an Attack Power of four thousand and the legendary swordsman in the first turn..."
"After all, he is the one who inherited the title of King," said Isis.
The Evil God also flickered his gaze, looking at the Silent Magician and then the Chaos Warrior, saying, "Two elves... To control such two elves simultaneously, as a human Duelist, is indeed not bad."
Yet his tone was arrogant, implying that although these two elves were good, they were slightly inadequate as opponents of my Divine Incarnation.
Of course, Yugen summoned the Chaos Warrior to the field, depleting one more card from his hand. The Silent Magician's Attack Power thus dropped by 500, but it still remained at 4000 points, equivalent to Obelisk Level strength.
"Battle," Yugen said, "With Chaos Warrior - Messenger of Creation, attack 'Fallen Angel Ishtar'!"
The Chaos Warrior stepped forward, the light of his sword flashing, as if transformed into a silver serpent, swinging towards the Fallen Angel.
The Fallen Angel flapped its wings to counterattack, dense black feathers shooting forward. Yet the Chaos Warrior did not retreat, the light of his sword flashing, and after a series of clashing sounds, the incoming black feathers were all knocked down. He drilled through the curtain of feathers, slashing horizontally with his sword. Ishtar's slender waist was immediately cut in half, letting out a tragic cry, her figure exploding into countless black feathers.
[Evil God, LP4000 → LP3500]
"Chaos Warrior - Messenger of Creation, Effect Activation," Yugen continued, "After defeating an opponent's monster by battle, once a turn, an additional attack can be made.
Attack 'Fallen Angel Subbia'!"
The Chaos Warrior defeated Ishtar, but stayed on the opponent's half field, smoothly turning to the adjacent Monster Zone.
Subbia was in Defense position, crouching on the ground, with red wings like two giant shields protecting its front. The Chaos Warrior thrust his sword forward, the Fallen Angel immediately countered with its wings. But the opponent's sword light pierced straight, unstoppable, puncturing the red wings and driving into the dark cylinder body, causing Subbia to explode as well.
With one unsheathed sword, he consecutively cut down two major Fallen Angels, after his success, the Chaos Warrior leaped back, sheathing his sword and returning to Yugen's side.
Thus the Evil God's defense was completely opened. Meanwhile, Yugen's Silent Magician still had a high Attack Power of 4000, and this strike would accomplish a decisive victory!
"Silent Magician, direct attack," Yugen said, "Silent Magic Burst!"
Malik and his sister held their breath in unison.
So strong...
This generation's Duel King does not fall short of the pressure that the game atmosphere had in the past, with such a fierce lethal move in just one turn. Malik thought to himself that this person, who once claimed to have been inspired by their duel, clearly could now also skillfully manage aggressive burst tactics.
Could it be that during practice before, he deliberately toyed with my mindset just for fun...
But even though this round of attacks was brilliant, if it were said that it could just easily take down the opponent, they also found it somewhat doubtful.
Sure enough, the Evil God said, "Activate Cover Card, Continuous Trap 'Demon Race's Chain'!"
Green demon chains shot out from the trap, instantly binding the Silent Magician's limbs while she was still charging. Although she was a Mage capable of long-range spellcasting, the moment she was bound, she felt her entire body's power being drained, her limbs powerless, magic difficult to summon, unable to even produce a small spark, let alone unleash a Magic Burst attack.
"Demon Race's Chain can seal a monster's attack and render its effects null,"
The Evil God said with a satisfied smile.
"It's a pity, but the young Mage girl might not be of any use."
"Then the turn ends."
Yugen declared the end, glancing at the Silent Magician bound by the Demon Race's Chain, thinking that the opponent chose to bind the Silent Magician instead of the Chaos Warrior with consecutive attack effects. Although the Silent Magician had higher Attack Power, if they chose to seal the Chaos Warrior with the chain, Silent alone would also be unable to finish off the opponent, and the opponent could also keep an additional Fallen Angel on the field in the next turn.
Therefore, the choice to seal the Silent Magician might have been to prevent her troublesome magic sealing ability, as well as considering that once her effects are negated, her Attack Power would drop to the original 1000 points, turning her into a target.
The Evil God said, "My turn, draw a card."
He leisurely summoned a monster from his hand.
"Summon 'Fallen Angel Ukebak'!"
The summoned creature was a small-statured Fallen Angel, kid-sized with its wings no larger than two stubs in comparison to other Fallen Angels. This was one of the rare low-level monsters among the Fallen Angels.
[Fallen Angel Ukebak, Attack Power 700]
"Ukebak's Effect, when this card is successfully summoned, send one 'Fallen Angel' from the deck to the graveyard."
The Evil God drew from the deck, finding a card and displaying it.
"I send the Trap Card 'Rebel Fallen Angels' from the deck to the graveyard."
He then revealed two cards from his hand.
"The effect of 'Fallen Angel Anducia' in my hand. Discard this card and one 'Fallen Angel' card to retrieve one 'Fallen Angel' card from the graveyard back to the hand."
He slipped two Fallen Angel cards into the graveyard.
"From the graveyard, I add the Magic Card 'Fallen Angel's Altar' to my hand!"
Malik froze: "Retrieving from the grave... The retrieval scope is for Fallen Angel 'cards' and not just monsters?"
Recovering monsters and recovering Magic Traps are entirely different concepts. The Yu-Gi-Oh! card pool has countless means to recover monsters, but the ways to recover Magic Traps are extremely limited by comparison.
"Then once more, activate the Magic Card 'Fallen Angel's Altar', reviving the Fallen Angel from the graveyard!" said the Evil God, "Revive 'Fallen Angel Subbia' who was defeated last turn!"
The red wings unfurled again, and the Fallen Angel with the dark cylinder emerged from the vortex of the grave, red feathers fluttering everywhere.
[Fallen Angel Subbia, Defense Power 2400]
"Of course, the revived monster by the altar can only be in Defense mode," the Evil God raised his voice, "But Subbia's effect is also activated!
Special Summon of Fallen Angel Subbia from the grave, and then revive any Angel Race monster from the graveyard back to the field!
Revive the other Fallen Angel that was just discarded, descend now—
—Fallen Angel Tezcatlipoca!!"
